Greetings in the Flow !
As Thanksgiving approaches it’s the perfect time to count our blessings. Gratitude is a fundamental part of most transformational and spiritual paths. It has many important health benefits too… including better sleep, fewer physical ailments, and a greater ability to cope with stressful situations. It elevates your soul, energizes your spirit, inspires and transforms you. Practicing gratitude has also been linked to positive mental health. To find our own personal state of bliss, it helps to see how we fit into things bigger than ourselves. Take this time now and/or join us for a special Thanksgiving Day Class (Graciousness from Within – All Levels HOT Yoga) and reflect on all there is in your life to be grateful for.
We have a full schedule of 30 classes per week for you to choose from & have added more Hot Classes to the schedule to warm your soul. Other classes will now be kept at a neutral warm temperature (approx 70 – 75 degrees) for those of you not wanting a Hot class.
If you seek to go a little deeper, see below for our upcoming events this month from Ayurvedic Nutritional tips to stay balanced this Fall & Winter to Kalari Yoga Workshops & Massages. Kalari Yoga is an incredibly fluid, powerful and transformational practice that is just now coming to the states. You don’t want to miss this opportunity. There are only 4 spots left for the Kalari Massage so sign up now if you’re interested. Also don’t forget the Restorative Yoga Teacher Training the first weekend of December with Shannon Paige Schneider from Om Time Colorado & our 200 Hour Prana Flow Teacher Training program (a Shiva Rea affiliate program) beginning in Jan 2010.
We have decided to continue our special of 1/2 off your 1st Pilates Equipment Session in November and December. You will be amazed with how your body evolves and changes with the Pilates Equipment Sessions. We have some incredible new instructors so this is the time to try it out while we have more appointment availability.
You will notice a few minor changes in the schedule this month and more changes coming in December & January. See at bottom of newsletter for specific changes.
